Most likely.

Back to back six day breaks into a crucial Geelong game is going to hurt. 

It's not the games but perhaps the travel but a light week can make the players more ball hungry.

    So that means likely 3:20 game on Sunday at MCG vs Adelaide for round 22

    Or perhaps a  Sunday 1:10pm or the recent "COVID" special of 2pm.

    But, yes it will be Sunday for sure.

    Geelong have got to be the only team to have profited from COVID.

    Well they’re old enough to have been fully vaccinated which helps.

    The AFL should have consulted them on how they handled the Spanish Flu when it was reeking havoc on the 1919 season fixturing.

    Fingers crossed. Otherwise I wasted my time shaving my plums and crack. 

    LOL… you replied to the wrong post! People might wonder what the Spanish flu has to do with your manscaping procedures. ?

    Have I missed something? I thought we were going to Darwin v Adelaide. Has that changed again?

    Club confirmed that round 22 will definitely be at MCG.

    I trust you didn't slip with the razor and give yourself a nasty cut.

    If left untreated, that can result in arsenick poisoning.

    Home remedy for that: apply some ballsamic vinegar.

    Dees schedule should be 

    v Eagles - mon night  OPTUS 

    v crows -3.20 - Sunday afternoon MCG 

    V cats -7.20 - Sat night - Cattery

     

    I would say you've nailed that schedule.

    The only minor alteration could be the early Sunday game.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
